Are you seriously comparing soldiers and insurgents ? Are the insurgents getting paid for what they do ? Are they professionnnally trained ? Are they occupying a country that is not their ? Are they under the authority of a government, or any form of legal entity ? Did they ever claim to be protecting the people in iraq ? Are their actions coordinated, supervised by and accounted for to a politic and moral power ?
Before you talk about double standards, ask yourself these questions. Of course no one is complaining about them putting civilians at risk, but that doesn't mean that everyone agrees with what they do. That's because, by definition, an insurgent is against the law : discussing their morality would be as pointless as complaining that a criminal is not a nice guy.
